So buckle up, grab a drink, and get ready to make some memories you'll never forget (or maybe want to forget, who knows). Let's dive in!

1. F**K the Dealer

This game is a classic card drinking game that is fun for both the dealer and all other players, where guessing the cards correctly or incorrectly in a row results in drinks for either players or the dealer.

How to play:

1. Players sit in a circle, whoever picks out the lowest card (2 being low and ace being high) is the dealer.
2. The dealer shuffles the deck of cards and deals one card face down to the player on their left.
3. The player on the left guesses the rank of their card (e.g., Ace, King, Queen, etc.).
4. If the player guesses correctly, the dealer drinks for the number of seconds that corresponds to the rank of the card (e.g., if the card is a seven, the dealer drinks for seven seconds).
5. If the player guesses incorrectly, the dealer tells them whether their card is higher or lower than the one they guessed. The player then gets another chance to guess the rank of their card.
6. After the player on the left has guessed their card, they become the new dealer and repeat the process with the player on their left.
7. If a player fails to guess the rank of their card correctly after three attempts, they become the "dealer" and the game restarts.

The game continues in this way, with each player taking turns as the dealer, until everyone has had a chance to play or until the players decide to end the game.

It's important to note that "fuck the dealer" is a drinking game and should be played responsibly. Players should only drink within their limits and should never drive or operate heavy machinery after drinking.

2. Survivor Flip cup

Survivor flip cup is a fun drinking game that involves a combination of flip cup and survivor-style challenges. 

How to play:

1. Divide players into two teams and line them up on opposite sides of a long table.
2. Each team should have the same number of players and cups filled with the same amount of beer.
3. At the start of the game, the first two players on each team drink the beer from their cups and then place their cups upside down on the edge of the table.
4. Once both cups are upside down, the players must use one hand to flip their cups over so that they land right side up on the table.
5. If a player successfully flips their cup, the next player on their team can start drinking and flipping. If not, the player must keep trying until they successfully flip their cup.
6. Once all players on a team have successfully flipped their cups they are done and whichever team does that first, wins the game.

 It's important to remember to drink responsibly and to stop playing if anyone becomes too intoxicated. 

3. Bocce

Bocce is a fun outdoor game that can be played with friends and family. 

How to play:

1. Divide players into two teams. Each team can have one to four players.
2. Choose a level playing area. Bocce can be played on a variety of surfaces, including grass, sand, or dirt.
3. Determine which team will go first. This can be done by flipping a coin or having one player from each team roll a bocce ball towards a target ball, with the team that gets closest going first.
4. The first player from the starting team throws the target ball, also known as the pallino, towards the opposite end of the playing area. The pallino must be thrown past the center line, but not beyond the other end of the playing area.
5. The first player then throws a bocce ball, attempting to get it as close to the pallino as possible.
6. The second team then throws their bocce balls, attempting to get them closer to the pallino than the first team's balls.
7. The team with the bocce ball closest to the pallino is considered to have the "point." If the opposing team has no balls closer to the pallino, the team with the point continues to throw until the opposing team has a ball closer to the pallino.
8. Play continues until all eight bocce balls have been thrown.
9. At the end of the round, the team with the ball closest to the pallino scores one point for each ball that is closer to the pallino than the closest ball of the opposing team.
10. The team that scored in the previous round throws the pallino for the next round, and play continues until a predetermined number of points is reached or a predetermined number of rounds have been played.
11. The team with the most points at the end of the game is declared the winner.

It's important to remember that bocce can be played with a variety of rules, so it's a good idea to establish any additional rules or modifications before the game begins.

54. Beer Darts

Beer darts is a casually competitive sport to be played while sitting down with two players, “the thrower” and “the drinker.” These roles alternate each turn. Deciding who will throw first is at the players’ discretion, so long as it is fair.

6. If at least 1 “drink” (1-2 fl oz) remains in the drink can, gameplay resumes. 
7. If any metal part of the dart makes contact with the can (before touching the ground), but fails to puncture, the receiving player must remove 1 “drink” from the can.
